So, Gene and I have decided that we are going to out-stupid both Balloon Boy and the White House party crashers: we are going to have a kid parachute his way into the White House. I am pretty sure my nephew Hank will do it. He’s 3. In other news, it feels like we are…
Month: November 2009
Shopaholic Takes eBay…
So. I was very good and did not spend ANY money on Black Friday (it helps that I was working from 9-5, so I didn’t even think of trying midnight shopping again). (Not that I would have, actually, as Gene made it clear that he did midnight shopping once and would never do it again)….
Thankful ’09
(Because I am a geek who loooves the search feature, here are previous Thankful posts 2008 2007 2006) (Subtitled: It’s Thanksgiving, Bitches!) So, what am I thankful for at the end of 2009? …I am thankful to have Gene, a husband who loves me for reasons I cannot always fathom. He is giving, accepting, loving,…
On to 2010…
So, I had my big doctor’s appointment on Tuesday. Everything went well with Dr. K and his nurse but the “financial counselor” (aka the Money Lady) actually thought we should pay for IVF.

(This replaces “mercy pie” as my new go-to phrase, which is OK, although a recipe called “Mercy Pie” sounds a lot yummier than a recipe called… eechhh, anyway…) 2) Another…
In only 158 hours…
(or next Tuesday, 10 AM, for those of you who do not think of the time span of 1 week equalling 168 hours…) Visiting Dr. K’s office next Tuesday. I don’t know if this means I don’t get to start drugs until next month, but technically next Tuesday is before day 21 so we shall see….
What the hell??
Quizzes Girls Games I am 6:49 AM???? WTF????? I am so 11 PM, or 1:30 AM… but early morning??
Ring, telephone!
Soooo… blood draw was on Wednesday at 8:30 AM. I still haven’t heard anything. I’m not nervous, just excited to hear something. If this is the month to start Lupron and other injectables, I’d like a little time to weigh my pharmacy options and find the lowest cost provider. In the meantime, here are some…
The Show…
seems to officially be on the road. Went to LabCorp today for my first IVF related bloodwork. Hopefully I’ll hear about the results early next week and Dr. K will give me an official game plan. I did not know this until recently, but it appears that IVF is generally a two month endeavor. Here…
